Message Board : Playing from the button

I have read a lot about the power of playing from the button and how you can play a pretty loose range of hands from it using your superior position to steal pots and play draws better.

However, while this sounds fine in theory in practice I have had trouble playing losely from position, my steal attempts with nothing seem to fail and only solid hands play well (which is not really the point, because of course I was always playing solid hands with position, my point is how to make money from weak hands using position).

I have dropped stakes to experiment with a loose button strategy and would appreciate any advice anyone about how to make the most of this position (which players should I target and what weaknesses should I look to exploit, what sort of loose hands are playable and against whom?)
